Amitabh Bachchan is one of the biggest names in the Indian film industry. The veteran actor is known for the notable roles he has played in many movies in the past. Amitabh Bachchan is definitely one of the most influential individuals in the Bollywood film industry, and just like all other actors and actresses, he and his family also own a variety of expensive luxury cars and SUVs. He even had a Rolls Royce Phantom, which was a gift from director Vidhu Vinod Chopra for his movie “Eklavya”. We have now come across an old video in which Amitabh Bachchan is actually seen driving a Porsche Cayman sports car.
The video has been shared by FilmiBeat on their YouTube channel. It should be noted that the video seen here was posted 7 years ago. We have no clue whether this car is still in Amitabh Bachchan’s garage or not. According to the video description, Amitabh Bachchan and his son Abhishek Bachchan were on their way to watch Akshay Kumar’s movie “Rustom”. What makes this video special is that it is not Abhishek who is driving the car. Abhishek is in the co-driver’s seat while Amitabh Bachchan is trying to drive the car in reverse.
It looks like the father-son duo was trying to reverse the car, and the photographers and vloggers had completely surrounded them, making it difficult for them to reverse properly. Abhishek Bachchan can be seen turning his head occasionally to check if people have moved away from the car. Reversing a sports car is often a challenge. In the past, we have seen people parking cars like the Lamborghini Aventador in reverse with doors open. The view through the rear windscreen is often limited and is a major challenge in most sports cars, and the Porsche Cayman is no different.

The video does not show the car in detail, probably because there were hundreds of people surrounding them. These days, we see personal security officers around Bollywood celebrities. They also assist the actors in getting out of such situations. Surprisingly, we don’t see any such personal guards in this video. It looks like the actors were not accompanied by them for this event.
This video is proof that Amitabh Bachchan is an automobile enthusiast. Instead of driving to the spot in any of the luxurious and comfortable cars, he decided to take a 2-door sports car. Recently, another video of Amitabh Bachchan went viral on the internet. The actor was seen driving into his house in a black-colored Mahindra Thar SUV. We have seen him in several expensive cars in the past, and it was actually surprising to see him driving a Thar. We are still not sure whether the Thar belongs to Amitabh Bachchan or not.
The Porsche Cayman is powered by a 3.4-liter flat-six engine that generates 320 Bhp and 370 Nm of peak torque. It was available with a 6-speed manual and a 7-speed automatic transmission. Amitabh Bachchan owns cars like the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Lexus LX 470, Mercedes-Benz GLS, Land Rover Range Rover Autobiography, Mini Cooper S, Toyota Camry Hybrid, Bentley Continental GT, Mercedes-Maybach S-Class, and Mercedes-Benz V-Class. He also has a vintage Ford Prefect car that his friend had restored and gifted to him. It was Amitabh’s family’s first car when they were living in Allahabad.
